History of Agriculture

Agriculture is a basic necessity for all human beings in the world and has been derived from the two essential terms of “Agri” n “Cultura” which means field and cultivation.

It has an ancient historical background initially originated back from 20,000 BC with the domestication of plants and animals. Prior to agriculture, people used to live a nomadic hunter style living as they hunt for animals and move out from city to city with not any permanent place of residence. As the flock of animals started to move to other places, there was having a lack of food supply that was a time when people started a new way of plant cultivation system for a proper systematic arrangement of food supply for them on a constant basis.

The first agriculture cultivation was started off in South Western Asia and Northern Africa with plantation of wild grains, barley, peas, lentils, chickpeas, and linen fiber. From the time on, agriculture farming became a strong need and necessity for humans for supplementing their food supply with the increase in population.

The history of agriculture has been mainly categorized into different stages of prehistory, early civilization, modern agriculture farming, and ecological organic farming.

There was not a proper arrangement of a provision of the food supply. Due to climatic change and retreating of glaciers, nomadic communities started to have a permanent settlement and initiated cultivating for food.
